Where you can go to the rodeo and see farm animals
Where you see abstract and landscape art in museums and on the streets
Where you smell meaty, smoky brisket and tacos from food trucks
Where it sounds very busy from cars on the freeway
Where the people are from different cultures,
Where the rain falls and turns Houston into an ocean
